Along Came a Freak Sandstorm…

…And a guildie was awesome enough to let everyone know! I happened to be pet battling my way through Badlands at the time. My luck at rares from rares spawns was a big fat zero until I tried a few times for this lil guy. OMG OMG OMG! YAY! A Silithid Hatchling!

I cannot even explain how exciting this is to me, because even though I am not overly fond of bugs IRL, I have always been fascinated by the Silithid. One of my big wishes is to have been able to participate in the opening of Ahn’Qiraj.

Oh, well. Instead I have my lil Silithid guy! This is the best rare I could have hoped for, battle pet wise! And I named him for the Buggers in Ender’s Game (just like my Hunter’s full size version). :)
